Notes

Started with the Northern Brewer West Coast Radical Red Ale kit. Used the malt bill provided, adding the carapils and acidulated malt to the grist.

The hops schedule, varieties, and amounts are completely different, as is the yeast selection.

Add dry hops around day 4 of primary fermentation. After 4-5 days proceed with packaging regimen.
